You post numbers comparing the Bengals to the combined picks of 31 other teams. No team would look good in this type of analysis.
And sometimes you do not even use the other 31 teams picks. For example you call Shawn Williams a "miss" but you can't name a bett safety taken by ANY team after him. Shawn has been kept on the bench because he has great players in front of him. Based on your logic Aaron Rodgers was a "miss".
I can't?
-Shawn Williams: 54 tackles, 5 Pdef, 2 INT
...taken after him in that draft...
-Barcarri Rambo: 109 tackles, 2 sacks, 8 Pdef, 3 INT, 2 FF
-Kemal Ishmael: 144 tackles, 9 Pdef, 5 INT, 1 FF
-Josh Evans: 201 tackles, 5 Pdef, 1 FF
-Duron Harmon: 63 tackles, 10 Pdef, 6 INT

2015 Playoff Teams by Pro Bowlers drafted in the last 4 years:
4: Panthers
3: Vikings, Chiefs, Seahawks
2: Redskins, Patriots, Steelers, Cardinals
1: Texans, Packers, Bengals
0: Broncos
The Bengals have NOT been among the best drafters the last four years. You can't even say "They win, so their guys can't get starting jobs." Other winning teams still have found Pro Bowl players to help them in the draft.

...Are you seriously arguing that Shawn Williams, Dre Kirkpatrick, or Darqueze Dennard is going to be Aaron Rodgers? Way to choose the most unlikely thing to happen and try to argue for it to happen for 4 years of draft picks.
Maybe you also think McCarron will be Brady.
